much to keep alive apprehension the eudora is reported below with la ter advices if she arrives in season for a postscript we shall add a word to this slip special correspondence cf the picayune city of mexico april 30 1818 tbe inclosed letter of your correspon dent at queretaro should have been in my bands last night but some irregulari ty in the post office here prevented my re ceiving it until this morning you will see your correspondent an nounces llie important fact that a quorum is at queretaro at last and that congress only awaits the arrival of the american commissioners to commence its delibera tions why ihey should wait for the ar rival of the commissioners to commence their sittings is more than i know their first duly as required by the constitution is to elect a president and this before en tering into a consideration of the treaty the commissioners are waiting to hear of ficially that congress is prepared to sit before they leave for queretaro as soon as that fact is announced to them by the mexican goverment they will start they expect to receive a communication by the mail which arrives from queretaro on the 2d of next month last night the cily was thrown into a state of great excitement by the circula tion of a letter purporting to be from queretaro ot which the lollowing is a translation : popular revolution against the govern ment at qin ii taro â€” a respectable gentle man has received by extraordinary ex press from queretaro a letter which a mong oilier things says : 'â€¢ qri.iu.i i.u april 27 1818 ) 11 o'clock at night ) " dear friend â€” the people have be come weary itli suffering the oppression and sport of pejy tyrants this at least is the case with the mexicans and by the omnipitent exercise of its will discar ding what is called the general govern ment ofthe nation established at quere taro it has prostrated to the earth its treacherous oppressors at 9 o'clock on the night of this day without any resis tance it proclaimed the only plan which in the present circumstances can save ihe country viz : ' war and war vithon truce or j narlcr until an honorable pi ace is con queredt such is the programme of this happy revolution at the head of which are the distinguished gens almonte bus tamente and paredes to whose voice all who are mexicans rather than partisans will respond " the express being on the point of leav ing i renew to you the assurances of my r.-gard " the tocsin of liberty lias sounded at last sons of hidalgo and iturbjde a wake ! the invincible hand of providence points out to you the road by which eve ry nation on the globe will occupy its true place mexicans ! fulfil your destiny !" the whole story proves to be a fabri cation still 1 am informed by old residents here that the circulation of such stories in print is the usual precursor of revolutions and many circumstances render it within the range of possibility that the govern ment of pena y pena without popularity and without resources may be ousted from power before the treaty can be ratified the military are demanding pay which penay pena in the present condition of the treasury can hardly give them the ad vices from queretaro show â€” if betting can be taken as an index â€” a division a mong the members of congress on the sub ject of peace llubio whom your corres pondent says has made a bet of 5000 that there will be no peace is one of tin wealthiest and most influential men in mexico he is a spaniard and for the last ten or twelve years by means of his wealth and his powers of infringe which are said to be great has whenever he pleased controlled the government that has existed in the country lie is too tbe staunch friend of paredes and when paredes was president was his main stay i have been surprised to learn that a man as rubio's immense wealth and with the slake he has in the country was opposed to peace as he must know that the na ; tionality of the country is lost if the trea ty now at queretaro is not ratified but . be is the owner of some of the largest cotlon factories in mexico and may de j sire the extension of the american gov i ernment over the whole country to give 'â– â– that security to industry which experience i has proved never will exist under the mex ; ican government he is a large com j mercial speculator besides and like ma ny others of that class may be opposed to peace at the present time lest the goods they have ordered from abroad may ar ; rive after the treaty has been ratified and when the mexican tariff will have come into operation again this has been sug gested to me as one reason for his opposi 1 tion to peace by an old and intelligent resi 1 dent of this city who knows him well from what 1 hear of the character and power of llubio 1 attach great importance to the position betakes in regard to the treaty the monitor republicano pub lished in this city a strong advocate of peace although treating the letter to which i have referred as a hoax at the same tac ity confesses that the government has reason to beware of its enemies enclo sed you will find the article of the moni tor on the subject there are numerous rumors afloat here in relation to money and munitions com ing into the country to prosecute the war ' 1 have very good authority for slating j that both arms and ammunition are being j received through acapulco from south ', america in considerable quantities queketako april 27 1848 american deserters are continually arriving here ; during the last three days twenty soldiers presented themselves to the mexican govern ment and were immediately incorporated in the san patricio company the garrison of queretaro is composed of 820 men of all aims eight hundred men have descried with arms and baggage from the ar my of reserve 2,500 strong which the govern ment had sent against the insurgents at sierra gordo a wager of 810,000 has heen made for and against peace ; several deputies are concern ed in the bet and it is said mr rubio the principal better has staked 05000 against the peace the number of deputies is completej the arrival of the american commissioners is look ed for in order to ope'n the congress the consuls of the foreign powers are all here â€” anxiety is at its highest pilch and the delibe rations of congress are longed for as is the coming of the messiah it has transpired from the meeting held by tbe ollicers of the artillery that they have made a demand on the government to receive their pay in the same manner that the members of congress receive it and that they have made an assessment to furnish supplies lo landero but the nature of these supplies is not known the following is the article alluded to by our correspondent : there is an end to peace the government of pena y pena has fli_is.h i ed in a tragical manner ever since yester day morning this news was rumored those who circulated it referring to an express arrived the night before last from queretaro and to respec table

there is a factious band which with the grossest elfrouipiy insert lies with the dress of truth this is the irulh we notwithstanding counsel the supreme government to be on the alert these rumors are generally he precursors of great misfor tunes vigilance must he the watchword of the government and of every good mexican the report was evidently put in circulation to produce the catastrophe w hich

last night but some irregulari ty in the post office here prevented my re ceiving it until this morning you will see your correspondent an nounces llie important fact that a quorum is at queretaro at last and that congress only awaits the arrival of the american commissioners to commence its delibera tions why ihey should wait for the ar rival of the commissioners to commence their sittings is more than i know their first duly as required by the constitution is to elect a president and this before en tering into a consideration of the treaty the commissioners are waiting to hear of ficially that congress is prepared to sit before they leave for queretaro as soon as that fact is announced to them by the mexican goverment they will start they expect to receive a communication by the mail which arrives from queretaro on the 2d of next month last night the cily was thrown into a state of great excitement by the circula tion of a letter purporting to be from queretaro ot which the lollowing is a translation : popular revolution against the govern ment at qin ii taro â€” a respectable gentle man has received by extraordinary ex press from queretaro a letter which a mong oilier things says : 'â€¢ qri.iu.i i.u april 27 1818 ) 11 o'clock at night ) " dear friend â€” the people have be come weary itli suffering the oppression and sport of pejy tyrants this at least is the case with the mexicans and by the omnipitent exercise of its will discar ding what is called the general govern ment ofthe nation established at quere taro it has prostrated to the earth its treacherous oppressors at 9 o'clock on the night of this day without any resis tance it proclaimed the only plan which in the present circumstances can save ihe country viz : ' war and war vithon truce or j narlcr until an honorable pi ace is con queredt such is the programme of this happy revolution at the head of which are the distinguished gens almonte bus tamente and paredes to whose voice all who are mexicans rather than partisans will respond " the express being on the point of leav ing i renew to you the assurances of my r.-gard " the tocsin of liberty lias sounded at last sons of hidalgo and iturbjde a wake ! the invincible hand of providence points out to you the road by which eve ry nation on the globe will occupy its true place mexicans ! fulfil your destiny !" the whole story proves to be a fabri cation still 1 am informed by old residents here that the circulation of such stories in print is the usual precursor of revolutions and many circumstances render it within the range of possibility that the govern ment of pena y pena without popularity and without resources may be ousted from power before the treaty can be ratified the military are demanding pay which penay pena in the present condition of the treasury can hardly give them the ad vices from queretaro show â€” if betting can be taken as an index â€” a division a mong the members of congress on the sub ject of peace llubio whom your corres pondent says has made a bet of 5000 that there will be no peace is one of tin wealthiest and most influential men in mexico he is a spaniard and for the last ten or twelve years by means of his wealth and his powers of infringe which are said to be great has whenever he pleased controlled the government that has existed in the country lie is too tbe staunch friend of paredes and when paredes was president was his main stay i have been surprised to learn that a man as rubio's immense wealth and with the slake he has in the country was opposed to peace as he must know that the na ; tionality of the country is lost if the trea ty now at queretaro is not ratified but . be is the owner of some of the largest cotlon factories in mexico and may de j sire the extension of the american gov i ernment over the whole country to give 'â– â– that security to industry which experience i has proved never will exist under the mex ; ican government he is a large com j mercial speculator besides and like ma ny others of that class may be opposed to peace at the present time lest the goods they have ordered from abroad may ar ; rive after the treaty has been ratified and when the mexican tariff will have come into operation again this has been sug gested to me as one reason for his opposi 1 tion to peace by an old and intelligent resi 1 dent of this city who knows him well from what 1 hear of the character and power of llubio 1 attach great importance to the position betakes in regard to the treaty the monitor republicano pub lished in this city a strong advocate of peace although treating the letter to which i have referred as a hoax at the same tac ity confesses that the government has reason to beware of its enemies enclo sed you will find the article of the moni tor on the subject there are numerous rumors afloat here in relation to money and munitions com ing into the country to prosecute the war ' 1 have very good authority for slating j that both arms and ammunition are being j received through acapulco from south ', america in considerable quantities queketako april 27 1848 american deserters are continually arriving here

men of all aims eight hundred men have descried with arms and baggage from the ar my of reserve 2,500 strong which the govern ment had sent against the insurgents at sierra gordo a wager of 810,000 has heen made for and against peace ; several deputies are concern ed in the bet and it is said mr rubio the principal better has staked 05000 against the peace the number of deputies is completej the arrival of the american commissioners is look ed for in order to ope'n the congress the consuls of the foreign powers are all here â€” anxiety is at its highest pilch and the delibe rations of congress are longed for as is the coming of the messiah it has transpired from the meeting held by tbe ollicers of the artillery that they have made a demand on the government to receive their pay in the same manner that the members of congress receive it and that they have made an assessment to furnish supplies lo landero but the nature of these supplies is not known the following is the article alluded to by our correspondent : there is an end to peace the government of pena y pena has fli_is.h i ed in a tragical manner ever since yester day morning this news was rumored those who circulated it referring to an express arrived the night before last from queretaro and to respec table houses ofthe city of mexico gen bustamente in a well formed combina tion with his companions corsazar

ordinary courier has started lo call back santa anna the nation recovers its life courage and conceives great hopes war will be car lied every where these are ihe particulars of the interesting news reported and confirmed yesterday ; we however know positively that the whole is a fabrication there is a factious band which with the grossest elfrouipiy insert lies with the dress of truth this is the irulh we notwithstanding counsel the supreme government to be on the alert these rumors are generally he precursors of great misfor tunes vigilance must he the watchword of the government and of every good mexican the report was evidently put in circulation to produce the catastrophe w hich il pretend had occurred in this way revolutions are some times brought about in mexico â€” eds pic city
